Hey everyone,
If you haven't had a look at the draft report yet, I'd encourage you to do so ASAFP.
They are hoping for emails from people to confirm that draft report reflects the submissions made. Obviously the proposed trail from Stromlo to Cotter is a great idea,
and in fact a Labor election promise, so hopefully that will come about soon. Expanding trails around Cotter is also proposed, and if done well you could in theory ride from Stromlo to the
@Kowalski Brothers trails at Cotter Pines, all on single track.
Worthy of note is the elevation change from the top of Stromlo down to Cotter river is 400m, double what Stromlo has on offer right now.
However we really should show our enthusiasm for the Blue Range mtb park concept. Elevation change there is 500m, but potentially 800 if down to the Cotter. Imagine that.
Please have a read of the report and email them with your comments.
Going to tag Canberra people (and frequent visitors) as I remember you, but anyone who knows quieter forum members or non-forum people, please get them to write in with support.
And of course, as the whole plan is based around tourism, anyone who thinks they may visit for a ride please email them too. The more the better.

Mentioning the amount of $$$ other regions are spending on mtb, and for Canberra to play in this kind of market is important.
Any email, however short will be helpful!
COMMENTS CLOSE MONDAY!!!!
